Brain freeze...

Author: Jax Cassidy // Category: , ,
You know when words become jumbled and incoherent in your head..that's the moment when you need to do something else. For the past few weeks I've been immersed in proposals, editing, and all that other stuff...and finally I collapsed from writing overload. If that's possible.

So, being the obsessed individual that I am, I channeled all my creativity into web design. Granted, it was for my new writing persona, but I thought it would be a nice outlet. WRONG. Nothing is more frustrating than coding that doesn't want to cooperate. It's more than that. A designer has to look at the overall design of the website, then they have to place it in such a way that the text won't looked jacked up, and the images are all in place. Sometimes the look can be simplistic and slick, but the final product will show all the mistakes...which basically means you're SOL and it's back to the beginning. Yes, it totally sucks because you have to link up every little piece and re-do all the coding all over again!!!!! Now, this is day three and I finished the site but it's not going to be revealed. Why? Because I wanted to create the product before I populated it with work...so, basically, the preliminaries are done and all I need to do is fill in the blank when I actually sell. Smart, non? Maybe. Maybe not. In a few months I'll know if it needs to be scrapped and re-designed, because knowing me, I am a total perfectionist...it's not easy being annoyed with yourself when you need to play nice...otherwise, I may not finish what I've started...

Yes, I know, I need to write...GOING!

It's so easy to get sucked into other things when we should be writing. And computer coding? More frustrating and involving than ANYthing!

Tell me about it. I want to jump out the window because the coding becomes a foreign language..and when you start to understand it, you know you are going NUTS.
